“Rise and set free. Fall and let be.
Let each breath be a world
unto itself, a word, say blossom or river
or rain, a sound repeated,
the same sound many times
at once, wind chimes
jangling on a porch as the sky
grows dark and something
you can’t believe is still
within you starts to speak again.”
—From "Starting Over"
